^^what she said. Any drastic loss the first couple of days is expected but for keeping it off long term just focus on taking it slow and steady. Good Luck!

Until you are 1000% ready to do it solely for you, I've found its tougher, forget the job, the boyfriend the parents, do it for you and the confidence will come in time! Once you're totally committed, you'll be surprised how fast it can come off. I lost that in less than a year! Good Luck and have faith in what YOU can…

That's why i wake up early get a breakfast in and then head to the gym before I get to work, it helps with my morning mood along with sleeping at night.

gorgeous! yes/..... if i liked girls :-P

5 :-) great work!

10 love me a man with a gun ;-)!!

Good Morning! lol.. although for me it seems like afternoon at this point. I wake up at 530, do my routine, burshing teeth, and I drink a bottle of water... Just to kind of wake me up and get my organs started. Once I'm feeling like my motor skills kick in I do some dynamic stretching, it helps to get the heart rate up a…

using the "normal" size stalls in the rest room.. i always felt like i was squished...

This CANNOT end well....

Thats AWESOME! congrats.. they do say it takes 21 days to create a habit, just imagine someday you may crave the "good" stuff!

Yes. :-)

completely concur

only if you use your new paint rags to clean up the blood!

And I sincerely FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY CHUBBY LITTLE HEART Thank each and every one of you who went out of their way to offer something up and not giving the typical "this girl doesnt want to learn answer" Honestly, THANK YOU ALL! But I see this too often where people sincerely are looking to those who have been successful…

It's funny.. did you actually read the thread?? Or just making generalizations... because I've actually referenced that myself. But please, since you, Liminal, know all the answers... how to fix my problem. I've made a doctors appointment.... I weigh and measure everything and I doubt by eating roughly 1400 calories a day…

I'm certainly going to ask to have any possible test run, it doesn't make sense to me as to why everything just abruptly stopped all of a sudden. Especially since I've always be active, I've just always been big. Thank you!

I'm not disagreeing with the doctor part, but sometimes, just sometimes... there are people out there at perhaps some should be more sensitive to, its not as simple as calories and and calories out for some. It's not that people having a hard time getting their weight moving again is because we're secretly binging and not…

I don't know many fun facts about where I currently live, but here is one about where I'm from... Nesquehoning, Pennsylvania is home of KME (headquarters) one of the largest emergency response vehicle manufacturer's. (and its a super small town, only 1 stop light)

I'm going to try really hard to not be one of these snarky MFP people who just want to say they want help but everything they're doing is right... because i"m a novice... I am ok admitting I know next to nothing but you've lost 9 more pounds than I have.... What was meant is exactly what A_Dabauer said.... I'm snacking and…

Thanks for making light of the situation.... as a 261 pound woman i doubt going over 1400 calories a day is over eating. ;-) I'm here for honest help and I'm open to trying anything.... Thank you everyone else.. .Ana, I'll definitely try that! As you can tell even with 50 ish off I'm still very new to this and absolutely…

I haven't yet had the money to get a heart rate monitor so I just enter what MFP has already in their database... (which i understand is a huge overestimate from what I burn in reality) And to be honest i rarely eat anything burned back as I'm not that hungry in the evening after dinner.

The next disheartening piece is I've just been going by the range that mfp has given me, i feel like i'm eating and snacking almost all day... and I'm never hungry. but as Ana stated i'm clearly under eating.... so, how do i eat more without gaining back?

Well I'm 5'5 and currently weigh 261 (sorry for being an airhead and not thinking about that before!!) I go to the gym 5-6 times a week and do a mix of cardio and weights. I do have a food scale and use it religiously the days that I've missed most recently have been due to frustration but I can promise I havent gone and…

Top one! It's so classy!

Erin Smack-A-***** whoops didnt read to the end!

Been riding that one for a while ;-)

sorry... not my type lol but you're gorgeous!

Girl you can do it! I'm around 260 now as a 5'5 woman and i started at 310 I've lost the weight I have already since Ash Wed. (which i think was in march or something) Just watch your intake and you can do it! I know being as active as I am helped the first few pounds but its really about the diet.
